What does your significant other think about boating?
Both my wife and I have grown up around the water and love all things nautical... But when it comes to boats, that's where we differ in opinion! She's the pontooon type that likes a lazy cruise to look at houses and drink wine. I am a full throttle kinda guy, but still respectful and safe. For me the boat is the "thing" to her its just a vehicle that gets her on the water. Just me talking about boats gets an eye roll. Most of my buddies who own boats significant others are the same way...what's it like for you?

I am also married to a CRUISER QUEEN . She loves the soft ride of the cat but keeps one eye on the tach and when it starts moving past 4000 she usally starts swinging unless i got a couple brews in her . Hence the ride along rev limiter . ...:lolhit::lolhit:

My wife does not boat often. She will come along if we are going to get something to eat and/or taking friends out for a ride. I to like to go fast but try to refrain when wife is on board.

wow, i must be in the elite zone then, my wife loves going fast i've never had the boat out without her, hell i've never loaded the boat on the trailer! she watches the weather and when a hot weekend comes she always says "i have gas points at giant" i know what she wants, i do love her love of performance boating, makes my life easier!!!
